I had an old twenty gallon that I tore off the rims, so now it is a rimless. Looks great and was way cheaper than buying an ADA tank.

weer looking for 100 gallon+ tank with stand and canopy my parents dont want to spend over $800.And it begins...Comment

I am just suggesting you buy a cheap tank with rims (100gallons +) and take the rims off yourself. It didn't take me more than 30 minutes for the 20, the 100 gallon would take awhile.

If you want a sand and canopy....why do you want it to be rimless?Originally posted by DiscusKid View Post
The stand and canopy would cover the rim.I ate my fish that died.

same with my 4 foot 75g, no trim, that one took like 45 minutes.
however, both of these tanks have thick glass middle braces, so they provide 99.9999% of the strength, wereas the trim on those was simply asthetics.
now if you go buy an all glass aquarium with the plastic middlew brace built into the trim of the tank and remove it, then your asking for trouble.Last edited by TaTeR ToT; 06-13-2009, 02:22 PM.FRENCH FRY!!!
